Beauty Bar in Hollywood (they also have locations in San Francisco and New York) has a happy-hour special until 9 pm or so, where for $10 you get a martini and a manicure. I've been wanting to do this for awhile, so when a girlfriend called last night and suggested we go, I was down.
Turns out we had a choice! You can either get a manicure OR a henna tattoo. I've had manicures before and I always think afterward that I would've done a better job myself, but I've never done henna and I've always liked it. So I got my martini (a delicious concoction of vanilla vodka, ginger ale, and lime), and settled in for some henna painting. I got a really pretty flower on the back of my hand, about an inch under my pinkie knuckle, with curly, leafy vines extending from my wrist and going up my middle finger all the way to the nail. I absolutely love it - so much that I want to get a permanent tattoo like this!
Anyone else do henna? It's a lot of fun! Neat way to do something different...
